The Story of My Aunt in the Red Chamber

Chapter 18 It's New Year's Eve

It was already mid-December when Lin Ruhai and others went to Beijing, so after visiting Wang's and Jia's, it was almost New Year's Eve.Fortunately, Wang Zimeng knew that this year's Chinese New Year would be in Beijing, and he had already made preparations, so he didn't rush around for a while.

Only Mrs. Wang came over before the Chinese New Year, and said that Wang Zimeng was the first time to celebrate the New Year in Beijing, and she had no experience. She wanted to send Wang Xifeng to help, but Wang Zimeng flatly refused.What an international joke, she's not having a twitching brain anymore, giving others a chance to plug nails.Besides, the members of Jia's family are all masters of plucking wild goose, she can't afford it.

However, after Mrs. Wang left, Wang Zimeng thought about it and asked someone to call Daiyu and Baochai over.

"My sons, I called you here because I have something to discuss with you." Wang Zimeng took the white and tender little hands of the two girls, saw Daiyu and Baochai's mother, and said, "Mommy, you Look, after the new year, the two girls have grown up, are they going to start learning how to manage the house?"

"The wife is still thoughtful, and the old slave thinks the same way. I thought that the New Year is coming soon, and the wife must be very busy, so I thought about it after the New Year."

"Don't wait for the new year, just follow me and learn now. This kind of human relationship, what is more tempering than the New Year!"

"Auntie, we'd better read quietly. Auntie is here for these trivial matters!" Lin Daiyu was a little reluctant. Daiyu, who was brought up by Jia Min since she was a child, was still a little high-spirited.

"Hey, my son, put those thoughts aside. Now that my aunt is in front, after that you get married, who cares about it!" Wang Zimeng was a little amused.

"Auntie is bad, Yu'er ignores you."

As soon as the subject of marriage was brought up, Miss Daiyu's face turned red, and she took Baochai's hand who was giggling aside, and wanted to leave.

"Okay, okay, it's my aunt's fault, my aunt shouldn't have made fun of you." Wang Zimeng quickly pulled Daiyu back, "But, Yu'er, look, my aunt's hair is all gray, it's all these days I'm busy, my aunt hasn't slept well for several days, so you can help your aunt, huh?"

Playing the family card, as expected, Daiyu looked over with some distress, "Auntie, these things are not in a hurry, you should also pay attention to your health."

Even Baochai, who was standing aside, began to feel sorry for his mother, "Mom, there are some things that you don't need to do yourself, just order the subordinates to do them."

The prince rubbed the tears that didn't exist in the corner of his eyes and said, "I can't help it. No one is watching. I don't know what the job will be like! You don't want to help me, why is my life so hard! "As he spoke, he choked a few times.

Sure enough, Daiyu and Baochai immediately surrounded him, while comforting Wang Zimeng, they promised to come over tomorrow to learn housework and help Wang Zimeng reduce the burden.

The mother is kind and the son is filial, the corners of the mouths of the people watching here twitched slightly, especially Tong Xi and Tong Gui who were standing behind Wang Zimeng thought in unison, "My wife, why do you have gray hair? The hair is darker and brighter than that of the slave girl. I haven't been able to sleep for a few days, and the one who really can't sleep well is the slave girl, okay, didn't you leave everything to the slave girl a long time ago!"

Of course, Daiyu and Baochai couldn't hear the voices of Tongxi and Tonggui, so the next day, the two got up early to greet them, and after breakfast, they followed the prince to the flower hall.

After listening to the reports from the nuns in charge, Wang Zimeng asked Daiyu and Baochai to come over to recognize the servants, and after beating everyone for a few words, they let them back down.

Then, Wang Zimeng asked Tongxi and Tonggui to take out the recent account books, and said something to pay attention to during the New Year, and went back to the house with the stove in hand.Oops, I haven't finished reading that newly bought book, so it's finally time again!Of course, Tongxi and Tonggui were left behind to assist Daiyu and Baochai, and there was a nanny behind her to remind them that Chinese New Year is really not a big problem. . .

Seeing the prince walking away leisurely, Daiyu and Baochai realized that they had been fooled, and looked at the pile of Lao Gao's account books in front of them, wanting to cry but not crying.The two sisters looked at each other, each gritted their teeth and opened an account book, and read it bit by bit. When they encountered something they didn't understand, they asked Tongxi, Tonggui, or the nuns.

By the time Daiyu and Baochai were freed from the tedious affairs, it was already the day before the new year.

After the New Year was lively and lively, Prince Meng took the child to the palace to pay New Year's greetings in the second year of junior high school, this time it was accompanied by Lin Ruhai.When they arrived at the palace, Lin Ruhai dragged Wang Ziteng to mutter for a while, but Wang Zimeng didn't care, and dragged Daiyu and Baochai to the backyard with Shi Shi.It wasn't until later that Wang Zimeng learned from Lin Ruhai that they were discussing their marriage!

In the third year of junior high school, Wang Zimeng and his party went to Jia's house to pay New Year's greetings.It's not that Wang Zimeng wanted to go, but years ago, Mrs. Jia asked people to post several times, wanting to invite them to celebrate the New Year together, but Wang Zimeng rejected it with various excuses. This time, she really couldn't. Yes, after all, although the two families had some conflicts, they did not tear each other apart after all.

Fortunately, going to Jia's house this time was good at the beginning. Jia Baoyu seemed to have been mentioned, and he didn't say anything excessive, but just kept moving closer to Daiyu and Baochai.Although Wang Zimeng really wanted to throw him to the men's table outside, but in Jiamu's eyes, he was still a child, and we were relatives, so it was okay to play together.

I was just afraid of what would happen. After dinner, when everyone was drinking tea, Jia Baoyu asked a very classic question, "Does my sister have words?" Without waiting for Daiyu to answer, he said, ""A Guide to Ancient and Modern Characters" "Kao" said: "There is a stone named Dai in the West, which can replace the ink of thrush." ​​Sister Kuang Lin's brows are frowning, and the word "frown and frown" is not so wonderful!" She said and clapped her hands.

Baochai saw that Daiyu was too angry to speak, but Tanchun was still smiling and said hello, and said, "Could it be that Baoyu and all the sisters have words? Why are you here to ask sister Daiyu if she has any?" Character!"

For a while, everyone was stunned, yes, even Baoyu didn't have words, how could they have them.Baochai obviously thought of this too, "Oh, I said it again, so everyone doesn't have words yet, no wonder I have to know, this word is not easy for anyone to pick up."

Seeing Baochai's big sister preaching, Jia Baoyu was very displeased, but thinking of what Jia Mu said to Mrs. Wang yesterday, he wanted to let Daiyu and Baochai sisters, and also thinking that he had no words, he couldn't help feeling a little bit Withered.

However, after a while, Baoyu turned his mind back and got into trouble with his sisters and sisters again.Suddenly, Baoyu seemed to think of something again, turned to Daiyu and asked, "Does my sister have jade?"

Daiyu didn't show it on her face, and she couldn't help being even more unhappy in her heart. Isn't she born from covetous jade, so there is no need to show off like this!He replied in a bad tone, "Yes, I have a lot! I have white jade, sapphire jade, sugar jade, black jade, jade pendants, jade bracelets, jade hairpins, all kinds of jade. I just don't know what the second master Bao asked. What kind?"

Seeing Daiyu's upturned eyes, with an indescribable charm, Jia Baoyu said in a somewhat nonchalant manner, "That's right, that's right..." Before she could finish her sentence, Daiyu ignored him, turned around and walked away. Pulling Baochai, she sat beside Xichun and started talking.

For a while, Baoyu was a little at a loss, but Tanchun couldn't see it anymore, so she pulled him over and began to speak in a low voice.

There was a lot of movement here, Wang Zimeng and Mrs. Jia sat on it and could clearly see it.However, the moods of the two are completely different. Wang Zimeng feels that the education during this period is good, and he knows how to fight back when encountering problems, instead of just sitting and crying.Mrs. Jia, on the other hand, felt that Daiyu was ignorant, and that Baoyu was still young, so she didn't know how to give in. She completely ignored the fact that Daiyu was younger than Baoyu.

The prince dimly saw that Daiyu Baochai could cope with Baoyu's harassment, so he dealt with Mrs. Jia wholeheartedly.It's true that she ate more salt than she ate rice, and her words were full of pitfalls, but luckily she didn't have to face her every day.Until she returned to the Lin family, Wang Zimeng was still rejoicing that she did not marry into the Jia family, otherwise, her bones would have been gnawed clean.

The author has something to say: Haha, Ah Luo went on a blind date yesterday, and the other party is a handsome soldier brother, so cute. . .

Tsk, why do I feel that naming is becoming more and more incompetent? . .
